If you have a legal custody order in place outlining your rights to visitation often including how often, when and where, yes you can file an action against your ex in the court with jurisdiction over the case (generally where the child resides) indicating her failure to abide by the order. She may or may not be held in contempt of court, or otherwise compelled to live up to visitation arrangements as outlined in the order, depending on the outcome.

Can the father of your child deny you rights to take your child if there are no court ordered visitation rights?

If there are no court orders both parents have equal rights.


Do you have to take your kids for out of state visitation if your ex is thousands of dollars behind in child support?

If there is a court order for visitation privileges it must be obeyed. Visitation and child support are treated as two entirely different issues. Just as an obligated parent is in contempt of a court order when they do not pay the mandated child support a custodial parent could be in contempt for not adhering to the visitation terms.


Is it illegal to not allow the children to see the other parent if they do not pay child support?

If there is a court order for visitation or custody it is illegal to not follow the court order. Child support, custody and visitation are 3 separate issues in court. Paying child support or not is not a reason to take away the child's right to see his/hers parent.


If your wife gets sole custody of your children can she still take you back to court for reasons other than an increase in child support?

I believe that the wife can take you back to court for changes in visitation scheduling. She can take you back to court for obtaining clarity on the visitation which you have been granted.


If my ex-spouse hasn't issued child support to me and is getting married soon how do I file to pay child support so I can see my child?

I live in Indiana. In our state. Child support does not pay for visitation. These are 2 separate issues all together. If you have an order or divorce decree with scheduled visitation, and she's not allowing you to see the child, then you need to take her back to court. If no visitation has been ordered, then you need to petition the court for visitation rights.


How do you take away visitation rights?

Only by a court order. The court must be provided with compelling evidence the visits are not in the best interest of the child.


Can I take my child to another state?

Not permanently if the other parent has any visitation rights. You need permission from the court.


Can a mother take fathers rights to a minor child if he is paying child support?

If you're the father, and the mother is attempting to deny you visitation rights, you need to get a lawyer and take it to court. If you're the mother, and you'd like to deny the father visitation rights, you need to get a lawyer and take it to court. Child support is an entirely separate issue. It has NOTHING to do with visitation or custody rights. You are obligated to abide by the court orders in both cases, but you don't get to stop paying support or deny visitation just because the other parent did the other one of those things.


Can the mother of a child take the child while he is visiting with the father at his home?

Not if there is a visitation order in place and the visit is scheduled. If there is no visitation order in place the father should establish one through the local family court.


Can the father just take the child if he is refused visitation?

The child should not be placed in the middle of such an adversarial situation. The father should visit the family court as soon as possible and file a motion for contempt of a court order. If the custodial parent continues to deny visitation they could lose custody.If the father does not have a court order for visitation then he should petition the family court for a visitation schedule.The child should not be placed in the middle of such an adversarial situation.
